Chapter 156: The earth yuan fruit is gone.
"Fourth I think I also showed you my sincerity." Yan Mo looked at the four dwarfs.
The most screaming Luo Gan also looked at the people under the stage and couldn't speak. This surprise to him was too big, which made him a little unbearable.
Opa is thinking the same as Ka Di. Can you imagine? They just thought about going all out and desperately using life and soul to curse Jiu Yuan with their life, but when they went to the high platform to perform the sacrifice, they saw that they were not dead. The people who they thought were dead were actually alive.
Ka Di is even a little embarrassed to face Ancestral Witch Opa, because The MoMo Clan look much better than the Luo Luo.
The four dwarfs looked so complexly that they looked at the two opposite humans. There is a lot of hate in front, and then they have a lot of entanglement at heart.
"I believe that you also see that our Jiu Yuan is different from other tribes. We don't like indiscriminate killing, and we don't like aggression and going to attack other races., but we will never let go of our enemies."
Every time Yan Mo pauses, he will leave enough time for the dwarfs to understand and relish in the words
"Fourth, this is the last time I will ask, are you choosing to be friends with Jiu Yuan, let your people use labor to repay the previous debt, or are you choosing to be enemies with Jiu Yuan?"
Ka Di's expression was still somewhat struggling, has already looked at Yan Mo, like she was making a decision, but before that, she needs to make another decision. "What about if we are the enemy? Will you kill us?"
"That depends on our Leader, what he wants to do." Yan Mo's voice just fell, and Yuan Zhan's cold and cruel eyes swept away from the four people, this time he did not conceal his own murderous meaning.
Opa shrieked, “What does it mean for my people to use labor to pay their debts? Do you want to turn our people into slaves?"
"No, I think you and Ka Di have stayed for so long, it should be clear about Jiu Yuan's method of doing things, we Jiu Yuan don't like slavery, and have no slaves."
Opa sighed with mildly relief.
Yan Mo, “Jiu Yuan will provide shelter for both of you. You need to pay the price for that. Similarly, you caused troubled to Jiu Yuan and a lot of trouble to the life and development of Jiu Yuan people. This will need to be reimbursement at the corresponding cost. During the repayment period, we will not limit the freedom of both of your tribes. You only need to complete what we need you to do according to the specified requirements and time.”
“If we can’t do it?”
“If we can’t do it, to save our losses, we will use your people to exchange for other slaves, let them work in your place, and we'll give them free men status."
"What is the difference between that and letting us be your slaves?" Ancestral Witch Opa sneer.
"The difference is big." Yan Mo patiently said: "First of all, in addition to paying off debts, anything you go hunting, planting, or other things those will belong to you. Second, no one will beat you with a whip, only someone will go to assess your labor results and the debts you repay. As long as you do those, no one will control you. Third, you will not be separated, you can still live with the same clan and tribes, and Tribe Chief and Ancestral Witch will also stay with you."
Ancestral Witch Opa felt that life was gloomy, when she began to suspect whether what the juvenile Priest said is true or false, according to what he said, that the tribes will live and worship here, and then what is the difference between that and being Jiu Yuan? However, even if they are unilaterally will be doing things as a price to pay their debts in a short period of time. However, the degree of freedom is also great.
Therefore, Ancestral Witch Opa couldn't help, but tremble and asked: "How much do we need to do?"
"Not much, it is equivalent to one of you to build three houses."
Ancestral Witch Opa did not think about it, and immediately yelled in surprise: “Really?”
Yan Mo nodded. “If you agree, we can swear in front of all the people in our own ancestors and in the name of God.”
The dwarfs have no room for rebuttal, and this is their best choice for now. What Yan Mo said is true.
The four dwarfs’, Opa, Ka Di, Luo Gan and Lang Lang, together with Yan Mo, swore in the name of ancestors in front of the Mo Mo, Luo Luo and Jiu Yuan and the Mer-people.
Things seem to have been resolved, but Jiu Yuan people are not very happy, they always feel that Mo Da Ren is too soft for the dwarfs.
The Mer-people are not optimistic about Jiu Yuan Priest's behavior. There is no regulation, no coercion, and no real shock. How can the little dwarfs who tasted the sweet taste of betrayal be willing to do things for Jiu Yuan?
It can be said that many people don't understand why Yan Mo wants to do this, including Yuan Zhan who knows him the most, because his Priest doesn't even care about the dwarfs taking the opportunity to escape Jiu Yuan.
Yan Mo is too lazy to explain any more. He can't tell other people which countries or people have done the same thing, and he can't tell Yuan Zhan and others, because the dwarf did not really kill a Jiu Yuan, he can't be too cruel to the dwarfs. This was only after he had dealt with several minor punishments received by the dwarf before he understood it, but others can let it go, Yuan Zhan will not. He wants to know, he must know.
Yan Mo was bothered by him and had to tell him: "It is impossible for more than 300 people to want to prosper and to develop land... That is impossible. We need to trade and communicate. The Mer-people, the dwarf, the future Yuan Ji Tribe, including now The Granma who lived at the door of our city, the more people live on this land, the better, because only then can the land become energized in the shortest time.”
“They may also change and become an enemy."
"But they will also bring infinite vitality, and in a situation of mutual vigilance we can achieve a delicate balance. We have strong neighbors, there are threats from the forest, and in the near future there will be another enemy towards Yuan Ji, the environment doesn't allow for us to develop slowly, I don't want to fight with the dwarfs, not because we can't beat them, but we have too few reliable allies, and our own strength is too little."
Yan Mo walked to the window of the tower and pointed to the edge of the river in the distance. "How many days far away? There are no more than two thousand dwarfs running outside that forests. Tell me, what does this mean?"
"There are more than that number of monsters in the forest than dwarfs, and their force is stronger than the dwarfs." When it comes to war, Yuan Zhan always has the most accurate judgment.
"Yes! Do you think those little monsters will keep hiding in the forest?"
"Do you want the dwarf to be our first line of defense?" Yuan Zhan grinned ironically. "You don't expect them to fight. These little dwarfs may see those little monsters sprinting to further afield."
"If they can't bear and try to run? If we give them some force support? And tell them, can we help them retake the forest?"
Yuan Zhan always felt that Yan Mo wanting to use this group of dwarfs is a very unreliable thing.
Yan Mo is also very helpless. If he can choose, if he has a better ally, he doesn't want to choose this group of dwarfs with not much gratitude, their fighting value is not too strong, and it’s the race that betrayed the former benefactor, but he always has a kind of not a good premonition - Jiu Yuan is likely to be involved in a terrible storm in the near future.
In the moment when there is such urgency, he is not allowed to be picky again or slowly accept the dwarfs, he must be prepared for anything as soon as possible.
Yuan Zhan didn't know whether he felt his sense of urgency, or he also had a hunch. This person also became more and more diligent in training warriors and self-training, and he took over the work of supervising the dwarfs to build the outer city.
Yan Mo's hunch that made him uneasy soon became a reality, but before that, Jiu Yuan maintained a slightly strange period of stability.
Jiu Yuan people are busy hoarding food as much as possible from the end of summer to the beginning of autumn.
Half of the dwarfs were busy building debts, and half were busy hunting prey and collecting food for themselves.
Some of the dwarfs outside the outer moat migrated further afield, while others stayed by the river. These dwarfs tried to talk to the two dwarfs living in Jiu Yuan, deeply and clearly expressing their desire to cross the river. This made the MoMo and Luo Luo Clan feel a sense of superiority, and at the same time they were afraid that these ancestral ancestors knew the identity of their debtors, and they thought that the method they had accept would be refused.
Luo Gan would like to join the dwarfs outside to steal Jiu Yuan City again, but this time, Ancestral Witch Opa hit him back with a scepter.
Ancestral Witch Opa only gave Luo Gan and other dwarfs who were eager to try a warning: "When we have a 5th Rank blood warrior, we will take Jiu Yuan again, otherwise accept the truth! It is better to do this much, get some food, redeem red salt, winter is coming, do you want the people to starve to death?”
The Granma also took up a piece of land, they had more interaction with the Jiu Yuan people, but so far, there is no Granma woman or man who wants to join Jiu Yuan.
Because Leader and Priest did not ban the two sides from interacting with each other, when the Jiu Yuan and the dwarfs’ children got along, the adults might not be able to pull their faces and refused to talk. The children were easy to mix together, especially Yan Mo who still allowed the children of the dwarfs tribes to come listen to him in class.
“Mo Da Ren, Mo Da Ren! Ye Xing was bitten by a black snake!” Several children, regardless of their class, yelled running into the classroom.
Yan Mo and the children who are in class were looking at these traipsing devils.
, but these children did not feel the repulsive and unpleasant atmosphere, they only anxiously shouted: "Mo Da Ren, come see Ye Xing, he will die!"
Yan Mo face having a bunch of black lines is not the first time. “I have not warned all those who have entered the garden must apply realgar powder before entering?”
"Ah? Yes."
"And the black snakes don't not kill people. At most, the bite will hurts one day and one night. I have already given the medicine. I also taught Wu Chen and Cao Ting take Ye Xing to the clinic.”
“But...”
“Not too fast!” Yan Mo finally turned his face.
"Oh!" A few of the little devils knew this now, and they agreed to do it.
Yan Mo's forehead was simmering, when can he bring out a group of children who can take over his class? I don't know if it is because I can often see him and go to class again. There are few bratty children in the tribe who are afraid of him. Anything happens and they like to come to him, and he is so annoyed that he is going to die.
Although these children are very good at learning, very hardworking and very obedient, but... he will still be annoyed!
God, he wants to be a hard-working shopkeeper who studies his own research. How is it so difficult?
Yan Mo smacked the table and shocked the little brats in the class. They thought that Priest Da Ren was angry.
"Gege, De De, how long do you have to stand at the door? Come me in!"
"Mo Da Ren..." Gege was a little embarrassed, and De De pushed him from behind, and the two fell into the classroom with the slates. Behind the two, there are a few dwarfs who used to be in the Yan Mo class.
"Just go sit behind." Yan Mo watched a few dwarfs walk carefully to find a place to sit down. The other children grimaced at them, but didn't obviously reject them. This time he continued the course: "I just mentioned the earth yuan fruit, then today we will talk about what this earth yuan fruit is, what benefits it has for us, and how it is planted and how it is eaten.”
When Yan Mo gave classes to students, Yuan Zhan should have been training his plant growing ability. The warrior’s face Yuan Zhan was frowning and standing in the earth yuan fruit forest.
"What is going on here? I remember that the fruit could be harvested in these two days!", but he was forced by his Priest to come here every three days to practice his ability to help grow this piece of earth yuan fruit forest in a short time. To the extent that you can see a hanging fruit.
Seeing that it can be harvested in few days with Yuan Zhan ability, Yan Mo did not know how many times he had asked him to study what the 20 kinds of foods of earth yuan fruit were, and made him look forward to it, but now...!
Wu Chen, who was in charge of the fruit forest, shook his body under the pressure of the 5th Rank warrior, but he still held up and tried to sound as smooth as possible: "Me along with Ye Xing and Sa Yu these three days have made a team and have been taking turns guarding this fruit forest, so that we can be sure that no one is going to steal the fruit.”
“Not at night?”
“No, we slept here at night!”
“What about the fruit? You want to tell me that they all got into the soil by themselves?”
Sa Yu, on one side, lowered his head and couldn’t say anything he was dead scared.
Wu Chen turned pale, but the child was still strong and said the truth: "I don't know. Yesterday, Ye Xing was responsible for guarding. He found that the mature fruit of the earth was gone in the morning. Even the realgar powder was forgotten. He just rushed into the forest, but... he found nothing."
"I don't want to tell Mo for the time being. From now on, you will be on guard for the rest of the fruits if I don't see them again...
“Yes! We will be on guard about the rest of the fruit, and we guarantee not one will be lost!" Wu Chen and Sa Yu and others raised their chests and replied loudly.
Yuan Zhan nodded, but then he remembered something in general, his face changed: "Let Sa Yu stay here, you come to the cotton field with me!"
Wu Chen heard the word of cotton, and was also surprised. "Does cotton also... ..."
"I don't know, let's go and check it again." Yuan Zhan turned and left. The earth yuan fruit and cotton are the two plants that he is mainly acquainted with, and they are also the two most important types of training for Yuan Zhan. No one knows how much effort he spent during the early cultivation,but now one of the fruits has disappeared from where it was supposed to be hanging, what about the other thing then?
Fortunately, when they rushed to the cotton field, they found that the plants that had begun to produce green fruit were still fine.
"Boom! -" The dull thunder rolled over the head.
Yuan Zhan looked up at the sky. According to the Mer-people, when the last heavy rain falls in the late summer, the short autumn will come, followed by a long winter.
Yuan Zhan hopes that this heavy rain will not destroy the fruits that have been budding, and Yuan Zhan looked at the cotton field with a little worry.
The thundering sky, even if it is noon, the whole sky was dark as if it was evening.
“Da Ze said you were looking for me?” Yan Mo, who came out of the classroom, took two guards and walked to the inner moat.
Luo Meng didn't open his mouth and sighed.
Yan Mo looked at him with his arms crossed.
"It can't drag on, Mo Da Ren, our Priest wants to see you."
Yan Mo looked up at the sky silently. "In such a weather?"
Luo Meng nodded. The Mer-people like the stormy weather. The more it rain, the more they like it. Their Priest is no exception. He didn't tell Yan Mo. The Priest told him that this weather is the best for soft human beings when he presses the humans on the grass.
“I am honored, but my swimming is not enough to support me to swim deep into Qingyuan Lake, let alone meet with your Priest.”
"Of course not at the bottom of Qingyuan Lake, he is on an island. If you agree, I can take you with me now. If you don't like me to carry you, you can use raft."
"I need to let my leader know this thing, you know that as the Priest of Jiu Yuan, I can't leave the tribe at will."
"You can tell him, but..." Luo Meng was very sorry and hard to say: “Our Priest doesn't want to see him, he just wants to see you."
Yan Mo felt a strange feeling in his heart. Why did the Priest of the Mer-people suddenly want to see him? And by listening to Luo Meng's tone, the other party seems to want to see him since long ago, but the issue was dragged by Luo Meng to the present? And when Luo Meng mentioned the Priest his facial expression seems to be a bit subtle... What should be the inside story that Luo Meng knows, but Mo doesn't know?
Just then, a long, screaming scream came from the sky, but then a deafening thunder sounded.
"Boom-!"
"Hey-!" Mo Mo, I am back!
"Hey-!" A flash of lightning cut through the sky, and also illuminated a sharp figure that showed the lightning.
He just watched that there was only one long arm and it had already flown to the top of Jiu Yuan City after the thundering crack
"霹咔-!" This is another lightning bolt that illuminates the mighty Kun Peng masterly of the sky, even if this Human-face Bird Kun Peng is still in its infancy, but its huge body has already exceeded most huge birds.
Yan Mo looked up and waved, Jiu Feng came back, can Yuan Ji Tribe be far behind?
